Teen who took 'penalty kicks' at man's head sentenced
A 17-year-old boy, who took part in an assault on a man who claimed his head was used like a football as his attackers took “penalty kicks”, was given a six-month sentence at the Dublin Children’s Court yesterday.
The teenage father-of-one had been convicted of assault causing harm to the man, in Dublin’s south inner city, in the early hours of December 16 2006.
